With ABC, NBC and even the Telegraph.co.uk calling 2013 the year of the selfie, it begs the question, what will 2014 bring?

Selfie, the word that Oxford dictionary named ‘Word of the Year’, is defined as "a photograph that one has taken of oneself, typically with a smartphone or webcam and uploaded to a social media website."

Many of last year’s selfies prompted much unwanted media attention. At Nelson Mandela’s funeral. President Obama posed for what could be called the ‘selfie seen around the world’ with Danish Prime Minister Helle Thorning-Schmidt and UK Prime Minister David Cameron. And TMZ called Kim Kardashian’s post baby selfie of her backside an “Ass-selfie.”

Other selfie’s were just fun photos taken with famous people, or famous people taking fun photos of themselves.

Regardless, here’s a look at Native American selfies from 2013.

1. Three Native women posed at Emancipation Hall in Washington, D.C., during a ceremony that honored 33 tribes for the wartime contributions of the Code Talkers. The young women are taking a “tri-selfie.”
